Marbling is a beginner-friendly decorative paper craft that allows participants to play with color and abstraction to create original art. In this striking project focused workshop, participants will learn the basics of marbling on paper and fabric using silk paint on thickened water. Participants will have the opportunity to marble several sheets of paper and fabric to create an assortment of greeting cards, notebooks and a handkerchief. Best practices, cleaning and set up will be covered with students having the majority of the time to experiment with the materials to their own liking. After a break, artist and instructor Suzy Kopf will teach participants a saddle stitch bookbinding method to assemble journals for writing or sketching using their marbled papers for the covers.
Marbling is a wet process so students should come prepared with their own aprons or clothing that can be dirtied. Pick up of dried projects will be arranged with Marin MOCA after the workshop.
Suzy Kopf is a multidisciplinary artist who scrutinizes the paper ephemera of midcentury consumer culture to probe the enduring mythos of the American Dream. Through water media paintings, collages and site-specific installations she excavates archival materials and inherited nostalgia for utopias erected and cast aside. Formerly a college art professor teaching watercolor painting, professional development, and museum studies at Johns Hopkins University, Maryland Institute College of Art, and Anne Arundel Community College, Suzy is now exclusively working with adult learners and focusing on her own studio practice. In 2023 after sixteen years on the east coast, Suzy and her partner moved home to San Francisco to be closer to family. They enjoy walking the San Francisco hills with their two rescue pups, Theodore Roosevelt and Penny Lane.
